Trouble flared in the 33rd minute of the Europa League first round playoff first leg at Everton’s Goodison Park when Hajduk Split fan group Torcida Split threw missiles onto the pitch and kicked over advertising boards as fans clamored to enter the field of play.

Stewards and players approached the away fans to try and calm the melee, before Slovakian referee Ivan Kružliak instructed players off the pitch.

The Hajduk Split players made their way over to the away end and pleaded with their traveling support to restore order.
